Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy of two dosing regimens of adagrasib (600 mg BID versus 400 mg BID) in patients with NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of avutometinib (VS-6766) in combination with adagrasib in patients with G12C Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who have been exposed to prior G12C inhibitor and experienced progressive disease.
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, drug levels, molecular effects and clinical activity of MRTX849 (adagrasib) in combination with BI 1701963 in patients with advanced solid tumors that have a KRAS G12C mutation.
A small proportion of patients with lung cancer present with a solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN). This is an important group of patients because if it is lung cancer, presentation as a SPN represents early disease, which following surgery has a high 5 year survival rate. However as not all SPNs are lung cancer it would be unethical to biopsy every case. Clinical guidelines recommend that SPNs should undergo an initial (FDG)-PET/CT scan, which may give more information about the SPN and may indicate if it is likely to be lung cancer. However in many cases it does not and current practice is to monitor the SPN with a series of CT scans over 2 years to look for changes or growth which may/ but not always indicate lung cancer. If no changes are observed over 2 years the SPN is considered not lung cancer. This is both expensive for the National Health Service (NHS) and worrying for the patient in terms of monitoring CT costs and delayed treatment due to length of time to diagnosis. This study examines the diagnostic capacity of using a different CT scan. Dynamic Contrast Enhanced -CT(DCE-CT). DCE-CT and FDG-PET/CT scans give different information about the SPN and the investigators will look to see if information from either scan or combined information from both scans may be better in the diagnosis of early stage lung cancer. The investigators will also undertake a review of previous studies that have used these scans and use data from both the review and the trial to look at the cost effectiveness of using DCE-CT in the diagnosis of SPN. The trial will recruit 375 people who have a SPN detected by a normal CT scan which requires a FDG-PET/CT scan. In addition they will receive a DCE-CT scan either on the same day or within three weeks of the FDG-PET/CT scan. This is the only extra procedure that will take place to normal NHS care, however we will collect clinical and outcome data over the next two years. The study is coordinated by Southampton University clinical trials unit. Recruitment between January 2013 - April 2016, from up to 14 UK sites. Data analysis and conclusions are expected by the end of 2018. The study is funded by the NIHR-HTA
Because an endobronchial valve is a one-way inspiratory airway blocker, it is hypothesized that it could be also used for controlling persistent air leaks while maintaining the drainage of secretions. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved in October 2008 the Spiration valve system designed to control air leaks in the lung that persist after lung surgery. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Spiration endobronchial valves in a prospective series of consecutive patients with a prolonged persistent air leak after anatomic surgical resection for cancer.
